Whole Wheat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies-No one will suspect that these tasty cookies are actually made with whole wheat. They taste incredible!
I adapted this cookie recipe from Melanie over at My Kitchen Cafe. I adore her blog. I think if I met her in real life we would be great friends. Not only does she cook the same way I do, she has four boys just like me. We go to the same church. Yep, we’d be friends. 🙂

I first tried this recipe about a month ago and I’ve made it three times since then. I’ve tried it out on my family, my parents, some neighbors, and my husband’s scout troop. No one can tell they are made with whole wheat.
They are soft, chewy, and simply delicious. The only reason we shared with neighbors is because I was afraid to be alone in the house with a tupperware container full of them. OK, that’s only partly true. It was also because we have some awesome neighbors.

Notes
-Make sure you use freshly ground white wheat flour. Hard red wheat or whole wheat flour from the store will NOT produce the same results.
-I sometimes use M&M's in place of half of the chocolate chips. Yum!
